《(TinCan) I Hate U.》the right person

Can - Tin...
Tin - it looks disgusting, isn't it?
Tin's voice was emotional, like someone who just got done crying.
Can - Tin, did your dad did this?
Tin didn't have to answer, Can already knew it was his dad alright. Can angrily kneeled down to him.
Can - no wonder you didn't want to go back, Tin, I--
Tin - (interrupted) you're right.
Can - (confused) huh?
Tin turned to met Can's. Can couldn't tell if there were tears in Tin's eyes because of all the rain.
Tin - I am disgusting. My body is disgusting. My feelings are disgusting. Everything! Everything of me is filthy!
Can shook his head and placed his hand on Tin's shoulder. Tin quickly shoved it away.
Tin - that's why no one loves me. No one cares! it'll be best if I die! Living a life like this, I rather just give up!
Can - (slapped Tin on the face) you think if you die, everyone will be happy?! Didn't you say your mom loves you? Even Larry has feelings for you! You're not alone! You just think that you are!
Tin didn't move. He just sat there, looking at the wet ground. He shut his eyes tight. There are so many things for him to explain to Can to make Can understand... but he didn't want to bother. He stood up as Can followed.
Tin - think all you want, it doesn't matter to me anymore.
Can - Tin, you have to think of the ones who care about you. Those who love you and never wish you to die. You have to go back to them. (grabbed onto Tin's wrist.) Tin, you're a very smart person. If you just hang out with the right people, I'm pretty sure you'll never feel lonely again.

Tin - (snapped a glare at Can) right people? You sure know how to talk. If it's that easy to find the right people to hang out with then I probably wouldn't even notice that you exist. The only person that I feel right about right now is no one other than you, Can!
Can widen his eyes, frozen on spot. He turned speechless and he couldn't think of anything to say. He doesn't know if he should feel good or shame about it.
Tin - you see? Even you don't want to hang out with me. (Pointed to himself with his other hand while the other was still gripping by Can.) I always consider people's feelings. Believe it or not but I do! That's why I always hang out with Larry!
Can loosened the grip on Tin's wrist.
Tin - Cuz he likes me. I hang out with him because I'm doing him a favor. I want him to know that I'm not disgust of him. (Lowered his eyes) I want him to know that I'm grateful but... hanging out with him...was exhausting you know that? (Pulled his wrist back) I came to know that he only care for my image, not here. (Pointed to his heart.) And after what he did to us, there's no way I will forgive him.
Can didn't know that Tin could be this sensitive. He always thinks Tin was annoying, cold-hearted, and always care about himself.
Tin - (Looked forward) other than my niece, I can't think of anyone else who cares for me.
Can - what about your mother?
Tin swallowed even though his mouth was dry. He looked away, turning away from Can.
Tin - honestly...
Can listened carefully.
Tin - I hate my mother the most. Sorry, I lied to you, Can.

All World Online
Damien Close, age 19, becomes a quadriplegic after an unfortunate car accident, losing all function of his body from the neck down. With his parents in shock and his best friend suffering from unbearable guilt, Damien finds himself without much support. Being unable to even take his own life, Damien struggles to get past each day, looking for something to live for. With every passing day, Damien becomes more solemn and impassive. Three months later, Damien has almost given up, but to his surprise something unexpected happens. He is given the chance of a lifetime; to take part in a study focused on researching the effects of VR games on quadriplegic patients. Authors Note: If you find that the dialogue from the prologue to chapter 5 seem to be not that smooth, I apologize for that, it was my first time writing a fanfic so the dialogue was not in a format that is ideal. However, due to reader comments and some research I will try to attempt to improve the dialogue from chapter 6 and onwards. I may or may not come back to edit the first few chapters since I would have to rewrite most of it and I would rather spend that time writing out more of the story.
